Homestead Discriminating!

Homestead recently upgraded their services and when I tried to log in on my linux box, i got:
You are using a computer that does not support Homestead.

If you would like to take advantage of the Homestead's flexibility, power, and ease-of-use, please return to www.homestead.com with a Windows 95, 98, 2000, ME, or NT computer.

recently, I was wondering why i never had any hits from linux users or other browsers other than IE versions and Netscape 4.x or 6...it seems that they dont log other browsers or OS's....its disgusting how much they bow to M$'s control...grr...any other sites that have bowed to M$?

Thats messed up ... you think that companies wouldn't want to lien themselves up with another company which is traversing the courts for many violations.

Microsoft is like "the company" on Alien. Even the government doesn't fuck with them.

"If you would like to take full advantage of Homestead's flexibility, power, and ease-of-use, please cut off your testicles, and a representative of Microsoft will be by shortly to pick them up, stamp your new barcode on your forehead, and allow you access into our pathetic little crappy hosting system!"
